Isoelectric point and surface tension of twelve of the alkylcarboxy betaines such as 2-(trimethylammonio) dodecanoate, 2-(trimethyammonio) tetradecanoate, 2-(trimethylammonio) hexadecanoate, (dimethyldodecylammonio)ethanoate, (dimethyltetradecylammonio)ethanoate, (dimethylhexadecylammonio) ehtanoate, 2-(dimethylododecylammonio) propanoate, 2-(dimethyltetradecylammonio)proopanoate, 2-(dimethylhexadecylammonio)propanoate, 2-(dimethyltetradecylammonio)-3-phenyl propanoate, 2-(dimethyltetradecylammonio)-3-phenyl propanoate are tested. From the measurement of the isoelectric point, it was found that the isoelectric point were leaned toward the alkaline zone for c-alkylarbrxybetaines, and toward the acidic zone for N-alkylcarboxybetaines. At the range of the carboxybetaine concentration $2\;{\times}\;10^{-2}{\sim}2\;{\times}\;10^{-5}$mole/l, the surface tension of the aqueous solution were decreased to 30-38 dyne/cm, showing the tendency that the ability of lowering the surafce tension was depending on the increase of carbon atom number in the lipophilic alkyl chain. The critical micelle concetration measured by the surface tension and concentration curves have been found at the range of $10^{-2}{\sim}10^{-5}$mole/l.

In this study, we analyzed the physical properties of an ethylene oxide adducted amphoteric surfactant such as critical micelle concentration, surface tension, interfacial tension, contact angle, viscosity and phase behavior. The dual function characteristics of an amphoteric surfactant were investigated by determining an isoelectric point, which were attained using zeta potential measurements and quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) experiments. The isoelectric points of DE3-OSA82-AO, DE5-OSA82-AO and DE9-OSA82-AO surfactant systems determined by zeta potential measurements were 6.97, 6.93 and 7.10 respectively and they are in good agreement with the isoelectric point values measured by QCM experiments. The frictional property measured using an automated mildness tester showed that the DE-OSA82-AO surfactant could provide a good softening effect at neutral condition.

Two glycoproteins were purified and biochemically characterized from the lichen X. parietina. Both behaved as enzymes with arginase activity and haemaglutinins. Secreted arginase (SA) contained galactose and glucose in the saccharide moiety and an isoelectric point of 4.54. The algal binding-protein (ABP) had N-acetyl-glucosamine and glucose as glycosidic residues and an isoelectric point of 3.53. Both proteins had the same molecular mass (58.6 kDa) and the same qualitative amino acidic composition. The results allowed us to consider these glycoproteins as isolectins, which have significant physiological roles in the relationship between photobiont and mycobiont of symbiotic association.

Elecrophoreticl analysis of a 36 kDa protein was runned by SDS-PAGE, isoelectric focusing (IEF) and two dimensional electrophoresis pattern. Major 36 kDa and 25, 46, 48, 66 kDa protein were detected by Coomassie blue stain on SDS-PAGE. Major 36kDa protein was eluted for production of antiserum for serological analysis, IEF and two dimensional electrophoresis. Isoelectric point of 36kDa was aout pH 8.5. Two dimensional electrophoresis of eluted 36kDa showed one point on the gel. Anti-36 kDa serum made by newzilland rabbit for serological test. In ELISA, final titer of antibody was 100×{TEX}$2^5}${/TEX} : 1. Neutralize ability of serum was examined by slide agglutination test and colonization test in rat. Anti-36 kDa serum agglutinated whole cell of V. vulnificus were inhibited colonization on intestine in rat. Accordingly In this paper contain some electrophoretical analysis and serological test of a 36 kDa OMP of V. vulnificus.

Paper electrophoresis of aluminium ion was studied using a closed horizontal type apparatus. The optimal conditions of voltage, pH of electrolytic supporting solution and migration time were determined for the electrophoretic migration of the ion on the paper strip saturated by Michaelis buffer solution. The mobility of the ion and the isoelectric point of $Al(NO_3)_3$ solution were $(1.004{\pm}0.0020){\times}10^{-4}\;cm^2\;sec^{-1}\;volt^{-1}$ at pH = 2.38 and pH = 3.23 respectively.

Mackerel water-soluble protein solution Mackerel meat washing water were concentrated by isoelectric point shifting precipitation process, and the concentrates were utilized as a material for processing of an elastic gel food such as kamaboko. The water-soluble proteins were partly polymerized during the isoelectric point shifting precipitation process. Then, the water soluble protein concentrates were partly substituted for frozen minced Alaska pollack meat in processing of a good quality kamaboko. The maximum substitution percentage for good quality kamaboko manufacturing was concluded to be below $30\%$, according to the criteria of color difference, jelly strength and folding tests using the substituted recovered protein concentrates.

In this study, the measurement of physical properties of ethylene oxide-propylene oxide adducted zwitterionic surfactants were measured such as critical micelle concentration, surface tension, interfacial tension, contact angle, viscosity and foam stability. Also, the dual function characteristics of a zwitterionic surfactant were investigated by determining an isoelectric point, which were obtained using zeta potential measurement and QCM (quartz crystal microbalance) experiments. The isoelectric point of DEP-OSA82-AO zwitterionic surfactant determined by zeta potential measurement was close to that obtained by QCM experiment and both results have shown almost the same trend as that determined by the frictional property measured using an automated mildness tester. In particular, it has been observed that DEP32-OSA82-AO and DEP34-OSA82-AO surfactants provide better softening effect at a pH of acidic or neutral condition than at an alkaline condition. This result indicates that both surfactants act as a cationic surfactant at a pH of acidic or neutral condition and thus provide good softening effect during a rinsing cycle in the detergency process.

Enzymatic methylation of arginine and lysine residues of several cytochrome c and lysine residue of calmodulin always resulted in lowering of their respective isoelectric points (pI). Employing cytochromes c derived from various sources, we examined a possible relationship between the degree of amino acid sequence degeneracy and the magnitude of change in the pI values by enzymatic methylation, and found that there was no correlation between these two parameters. By constructing space-filling models of oligopeptide fragments adjacent to the potential methylation sites, we have noted that not all the methylatable residues are able to form hydrogen bonds prior to the methylation. Two preparations of yeast apocytochrome c, one chemically prepared by removing heme from holocytochrome c and the other by translating yeast iso-1-cytochrome c mRNA in vitro, exhibited slightly higher Stokes radii than the homologous holocytochrome c, indicating relatively 'relaxed or open' conformation of the protein. However, when the in vitro synthesized methylated apocytochrome c was compared with the unmethylated counter-part, the Stokes radius of the latter was found to be larger.

The soybean $\beta$-amylase ($\alpha$-1, 4-glucan maltohydrolase, EC 3.2.1.2) is composed of seven isozymes(I', I, II, III, IV, V and VI), and isozyme II and IV are the main components among these. The Purification of $\beta$-amylase isozymes from soybean whey were performed by ammonium sulfate fractionation, CM-Sephadex C-50 column chromatography, DEAE-Sephadex chromatography and Gel filtration. The resulted purity of $\beta$-amylase was throughly confirmed by electrophoresis, and then determined its isoelectric point and molecular weight. The results obtained were as follows, 1. Five active fractions of soybean p-amylase were derived on CM-Sephadex C-50 column chromatography. 2. Seven active bands of p-amylase isozymes were detected by isoelectric focusing gel electrophoresis, and their isoelectric points(I' to VI) were 5.07, 5.15, 5.25, 5.40, 5.55, 5.70 and 5.93, respectively. 3. Isozyme II and IV were main components of soybean $\beta$-amylase. 4. The molecular weights of both isozyme II and IV were determined to be 56,000 daltons by the result of SDS polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. 5. Km values of main isozyme II & IV for amylopectin were determined to be 2.25 mg/ml, which suggest the same function of each isozyme.
